DETROIT -- Forward Brad May will head to Grand Rapids (AHL) after playing in two preseason games for the Red Wings, Friday and Saturday vs. Toronto.
Wow, what a joke! The Islanders Ice Girls are tougher than this team.

Guess that fight with Jay Rosehill showed a little too much testosterone for Ken Holland to stand...

No surprise. Plus they got Bertuzzi so they've already maxed out on there toughness quota.

We dont have cap room for him. I expect he'll play about 20 or 30 games this season. Still about 50 too little.

Seeing as noone else offered him a contract, I'll say no.

Brad May doesn't deserve this!

crosty is only signed to an try out contract right?

because if so, they will prolly release him - would be too much toughness I guess.

Crosty isnt a great fighter but hes a tough player overall. May is far from a slouch. Im actually eager to see how he does against some of the AHL fighters. Mirasty (if dressed) will give him problems, but who else will really give him more than he can handle? Being 37, he gets to deny invites since hes already proved himself. May will fight in the heat of the moment as opposed to a face off tap.
